That all sounds exactly sound to me. I have worked in metal-working in my 20's and still have a bunch of hardened bits, drills, and files in the...
I'll give the file theory some more thought, but I'll need to get some time to work with the images. I'd already proposed a partial theory...
I'm with Dave here. Many years ago I worked on a software project with a small team. At every design meeting we were all sure we understood the...
I like the overlay, but look at the photos of the holder on DLRC. The reverse does not align with the obverse. When I originally realigned the...
The 1912 was listed as Gem BU++ on eBay. The 1912-D was in a PCGS AU58 holder at David Lawrence. I made an offer and they took it. There is some...
I could not stand my iPhone photo. Our guests have gone, the tripod is back on the desk, and I took a quick photo of the 1951 again. [ATTACH]
I tore down my "studio" - my tripod on my desk - company coming today. So here is an iPhone shot. I held the coin next to the phone to adjust the...

If it went from MS63 BN to MS65 RB, then I should be able to get 5 times what I paid for it. But then I'd have to sell it. And then I wouldn't...
Only the fields are affected, not the devices, except some very shallow parts of the bust. Both sides are affected. The characteristic is like a...
Thanks! It has great luster and just tilting it gives a ton of depth, flashes of deep red color, and a lot of enjoyment. I'd rather get just one...

These were common when I was a young teenager going through $50 bags of cents. But then, that was only 20 years after they were minted. The S mint...
[ATTACH] [ATTACH] [ATTACH] I thought the S mint mark looked cluttered. It looks like a chip broke out of the die. I'm afraid this is not some...
Thanks,Dave. I'm pleased with the progress, that they look so good already. I know I still have a lot to learn about adjusting light angle and...
The Philadelphia cent is just starting to tone above Liberty. The San Francisco mint hammered out a coin that managed to fully fill out the O in...
That's advice I can live with.
